` I SPECIFICATION forming' part of Letters Patent dated May 1,1883.l g `Application filed March B, i883. l(No model.) Patented in Belgium January 3, 1883, and ixiiFr-ance January 15, 18:33.

-To all whom, it may concern Beitknown that I, Eenn'r ABADIE, actizen of v the Republic ot'V France, residingat Paris, have invented a new Machine for .Printing ,'ffEndless Paper, (for which I have obtained Letfters Patent in France, dated J annary 15,1883,

for fteen years, and in Belgium, vdatedJann- 1 ary 3, 1883, for iifteen years;) and.ldo hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and `exact description of the invention, which will enable others skilled inthe art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference lbeing had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters or figures of reference marked thereon, which forma part of this specification.

This invention consists in the new combina-A tion of parts and'means for printing cnlong ribbons of paper. The ci garette-papergcutintocon tinu'ons bands of'any lengtliiand width, rolled on bobbins of any size, and susceptibleof receiving a trade-mark, an embleli; a title; &c., which is to be placed at variable or invariable, but always mathematically-exact, distances apart, is nnrolled beneath an apparatusfurnish'ed with stamps or characte1s,'and endowed with \a vlnovement which eiects the stamping or impression cf trademarks, emblems, &c., at 'disces apart previously determined, and justiiedby the movement of the paper, which is operated regularly and at a regulated suitable i speed; After passin gthe stam ping apparatus thepa pers pass beneath an apparatus furnished with boxes containing bronze-powder, which is7 spread over the impressionslrin vorder to bronze them in any shade, and is\ xed thereto smoothly and .firmly by the passage of the printed and bronzed paper beneath a rubbing-` roller covered with cloth, velvet, or skin. .i The annexed drawings illustrate an arrangementof machinery forV making the said impressions kor stamps, and for bronzing the same on long bands of paper. Figure lis a side elevation, Fig. 2 is a vertical section, and Fig. 3 "a plan view, of the 'machine i The mechanism is mounted on vtwo Vstandards, a, on'which it rests by two bearings, b, and two arms, c. This mechanism consists of two cast-iron side frames, d, connected togeth! er by crosspieces d' d2 d3 and by the shafts f 5o g h i j of the movable parts.A These side frames or any other suitable inkin g-instrument. The

rest in the bearings b by the cross-pieces or blocks d and in the bearings in the ends ot' `the arms c by two projections or blocks,` (1*. The shaft f carries the roller f for drawing forward the paper. This roller isot gun-metal, roughened bythe file and-rendered a little unctuons', `(Qnguemr.) The shaft g carries the printing or stamping instrument, which is shown with three equidis'tant parts,'g g2 93,. shaped to receive either a stereotype or printing-type. A I

Directly over the shaft gis the shaft-h, carrying the inking-roller h', which is vsupplied with ink by a rollen-k, arranged at the side and furnished with ink either by a handroller roller k is mounted at the end of tw` eccentricbars, ll, the eccentrics for which, l', are keyed onto the shaft f. The bars l oscillate round joints' l, fixed to the standards a. y

l Followingtheprintiugapparatnsis arranged the'bronzing-box'p, in which turns a pallet.,- i', xed on the shaft fi. Each revolution et' this pallet causes the bronze-powder to fall through the slit or holes p' at the lower part of the box. which is covered with cloth, velvet, orskin. The shafts f, h, ahd'j turn in'bearings. tted into the side frames,d. These bearings may be moved by the screws f2, liz, and fz, so as `to allow of the L'most accurate adjustment'of the parts f", h',` f

andj'. I l i Below the printer g' g2 g3 and the. cylinder jIV is placed a table, t, covered with cloth or other suitable material, t'. The position of'v this tat2 t3. The endless paper which itis required to stamp and bronze is rolled onrthe bobbins A, which are placed in the bearings of the From these bobbins the paper is conducted over the roller f', then under heprinter or stamper g g2 g3, the bronze-box p, and the cylinder j, and over the table t.

The shaft f, from which the machine takes its motion, is operated by `hand or by power. i It transmits the motion .by twoequal spurwheels, 'In a, to the shaft g, and by a pinion, q, to the shaft I'. This pinion is one-third of the diameter of the spur-wheels m and 'nr The Ibo

shaft f, by means of theeccentrics l', moves the inking-roller 7a to and fro in order to canse intermittent contacts between this roller k and 4the roller h.

It will be understood that thereglar movement ofthe roller f' delivers the endless paper P uniformly to the stamping, bronzing, and

nishing instruments, and that the said paperv is then rolled up onto other bobbinsbyany suitable' and-known means. iff.

As above described, the frames d are carried at d' and d4 on the bearings b and c. They may be'tnrned round the cross-piece d,"and

thus access be obtained to theworking parts rot' the machine either for cleaning, repairing,

or replacing.

The' generalarran gement and details may be varied as required without departing from the nature of the invention.

Thecombination ofthe frame a, having bearings b and c, with the frame d, having supporting-blocks dand d4, table t, rollers j g Ahj, levverv l, eccentric l', joint Z2, box p, shaft; i, and

pallet; i', all arranged for operation 'substan- 2 5 tially as herein shown and described.
